Book of the Week Extraordinary Everyday Photography

Awaken Your Vision to Create Stunning Images Wherever You Are
Get inspired to discover the beautiful images around you

Photographers are born travelers. They’ll go any distance to capture the right light, beautiful landscapes, wildlife, and people. But exotic locales aren’t necessary for interesting photographs. Wonderful images are hiding almost everywhere; you just need to know how to find them.

Extraordinary Everyday Photography
will help you search beyond the surface to find the unexpected wherever you are, be it a downtown street, a local park, or your own front lawn. Authors Brenda Tharp and Jed Manwaring encourage amateur photographers to slow down, open their eyes, and respond to what they see to create compelling images that aren’t overworked. Through accessible discussions and exercises, readers learn to use composition, available light, color, and point of view to create stunning photographs in any environment. Inspiring photo examples from the authors, taken with DSLRs, compact digital cameras, and even iPhones, show that it is the photographer's eye and creative vision--not the gear--that make a great image.

هل يجب أن تكون محايداً دائماً؟

 غالباً، إن لم يكن دائماً، ما يُطلب من الاعلام والصحفيين الالتزام بمبدأ الحياد، أي عدم الميل إلى أي طرف من اطراف الخصومة. حسناً، لنكن صريحين بهذا الشأن، إن الحياد مهم جداً لتحقيق المصداقية، لكنه ليس مبدأ أساسي يجب التمسك به دائماً وأبداً؛ فالصحافة مهمتها إظهار الحقيقة، وانصاف المظلوم، وإيصال صوت من لا صوت له. تمثل الصراعات اليوم مادة أساسية لعمل الصحافة، قد يكون من السهل الوقوف على الحياد عندما لا تكون طرفاً في الصراع، أو عندما لا تكون جزءً أو تابعاً، بأي شكل من الأشكال ، لأحد أطراف الصراع. أما عندما يكون العكس فإن الحياد يصبح مستحيلا، ومع ذلك فهذه ليست القصة الكاملة! المصيبة الأكبر هي عندما تكون الطرف المظلوم، المضطهد، أو المغلوب على أمره.   إن الحياد في حالات الظلم هو انحياز لجانب الظالم، كما يقول ديزموند توتو، الحائز على جائزة نوبل للسلام؛ ذلك لأن الحياد يساعد الظالم وليس الضحية. السكوت عن المظالم عار يورث البغضاء؛ لذلك تأتي الصحافة لتقف إلى جانب أولئك الذين لا يمتلكون السلطة أو لا يستطيعون نزع حقوقهم. لكن الانحياز والانصاف لا يعني بأي شكل من الأشكال التدليس، أو التضلي...
